Hi, Can anyone help me solve this calculation please, here it is : Calculate the number of millimoles of (a) Dextrose, and (b) Sodium ions in 1 litre of Sodium Chloride and Dextrose injection containing 4.3% w/v of anhydrous dextrose and 0.18% w/v of sodium chloride. Molecular weight of Dextrose = 180.2 Molecular weight of Sodium Chloride = 58.5 I have no idea from were to start. I have just started a course of pharmacy technicians and would like some help on how to work this calculation out. I thank yuo in advance, Regards, Nunudada
http://dl.clackamas.edu/ch105-04/calculat.htm This looks relatively useful. Try to find a resource that works for you -- a book, a website, etc. Presumably you'll have a lot of these sorts of exercises coming up, so best to find a reliable source that can help you learn along the way.
